MRS. CLARKE. The following account of the person and appear ance of Mrs. Clarke, on Wednesday, may serve to gratify the` curiosity of some of our Readers Mrs. Clarke was in waiting during the afternoon at Ellis's Coffee-house, accompanied by a fcmale and male friend: Slie was summoned to attend the House about twenty minutes before eight o'clock, and she came readily through the lobbies, with a. light step and a smirking countenance. She was dressed in a light lilne . silk gown and coat, edged with white fur, and a white muff. On her head she wore a white cap or veil, which at no time was let , down over, her face. .In size she is rather small. She has a fair, clear skin, and lively blue eyes, but her features are not particularly handsome. Site has an appearance of great vivacity and fascination of manners, though she is said not 'to be a well-bred or accomplished woman. She appears to be about flirty-five years of age, and very probably, has re commended herself more by her agreeable and lively spirit than by her beauty,, though it must be allowed that she is pretty, having 'a soft delicate corn 7 plexion, and an animated expression of features. When first she came into the House, she was very pale ; on her second appearance, the colour flushed into her face, whiCh was like vertnillien ; but she seemed not ,at daunted or embarrassed at any time. Her female friend was dressed in a white silk gown Spotted with brown, and wore a white bonnet with a veil so thick and close about her face, that her featurescould nut be distinguished. She went into the House of Commons, 'and remained below the , Bar near Mrs. Clarke during her examination. Mr. ''Gurney was heated at theßar, taking the whole of. the evidence in short-hand. Mrs. Clarke's maiden name wits Thompson, and her fausily was much inferior to that of her husband. Before she was quite tifteeen, she married Mr. Clarke, the Second son of a very eminent, wealthy, end. respeCtable bricklayer, who ,had been largely employed in the City of London.--The eldet son succeeded to the father's business, but is now dead, having left a family behind him, and a,fortune of about twelve or fifteen thousand !sounds. The se cond son (the husband of Mrs. Clarke who was last night examined), , was bred , a .stone-mason by his father, and carried on that business in an extensive and respthable manner on Snow•-bill bUt whether irons the indiscreetness of his marriage, or any ge neral indiscretion, the father left him only a weekly annuity during his life, the principal going to his children, of whom he has several by Mrs. Clarke, the lady of whom we are now speaking. Mr. Clarke is living; but, we understand, he has for some time discontinued his businesS at Snow hill. has two brothers liVing, the one an eminent Surveyor, the other a, Clergyman, both of them men of great respectability. Mrs. Clarke was always of a goy turn and very expensive habits. How long She has been separated from her husband we know not, nor.do we know what Was her course of life between that separation and her commencing the • costly establishment in Gloucester-place ; but her extravagance there was unbounded; and she in par ticular exerted all her powers in keeping up a luxu rious table, set out in the most brilliant manner.--- Of the extent to which .he Went, some notion ma'y be formed front the fait of the wine glasses, such in .size as individuals usually drink out of at dinner, being so finely cut, that at the sale of her Jurniture two years ago; they sold, second-hand, for a guinea each glass The nine new mansions in Hamilton-place, Pic cadilly, are to be the immediate residences of the following persons of distinction i—That magnificent one at the south-eastangle, of the Doke of BED..

She was observed, about half an hour previously to tieing found, going up the lane in company with: a man. The body was carried to the Green Man, in the New Road. By a letter from the neighbourhood of Dt ngar!. van, we have it in our power to stare, that the' de luded people calling themselves Shanavests, : an d • Caravats, in the parishes of \Vhitechurch and Mo deligo, are now surrendering up to Mr; Elliot, a vast number of guns, pistols, and swords, and that the least 'symptom of outrage has not manifested it self in either of those parishes' these six. weeks back. We understand the public are much indebted to' the : Boum Catholic Clergy, for the assistance they reit, dered to Mr., Elliot, in carrying those measures into etfect, by their admonitions and exhortations.— if ate Torii Chronicle. The Mail coach on 'its way from Dnblin, was, at an early hour on Tuesday se'unight, near Mount Shannon,. by four armed men, who seemed only detached for that purpose from a large gang who were lurking at a lit►le distance.. The spirited exertions of the guard, who exchanged shbts with those ruffians, and the quickness of the driver, to which_ alone the safety of the mail and passengers must be ascribed, deserve the highest praise. , The following remarkable circumstance our rea ders may depend on as a tad poor Irishwomin,. who resided in ShOC•hille i wag brought.to bed last Friday, and on the same evening dreamt that she should die on the Monday night following k ' The. dream she :elated' to her husband and others, and. ,stated her firm reliance on its verity ; and wished to have a priest to attend to take her confesiion, and grant her absolution previous to the event ,11:ir - petting.

The Bean and Pea dibbling, which was long interrupted, has been resumed in Kent and Essex ; but the general sowing of all Grain of the Pulse kind Must, of course, prove unusually late. The'weather admitted .of little or no progresi in any branch of husbandry till towards the close of the month. The Wheat comes freely to market, and average prices continue low : this is principally to be ascribed to the intended continuation of prohibiting the distil lalion from grain in England and Scotland for ano ther year; although tbes restriaion, it is understood, is to cease its prohibitory Operation on the landed' interest of Ireland: T bete is an uncommon demand for Flax Seed, for the Spring sowing of the three kingdoms ; the demand for Ireland alone is estimat ed at 50,000 hogsheads; but the extreme frozen state 'of the Baltic will, it is feared, prevent her receiving this necessary supply. The Hay Markets have had a rise of about los. per load ; but Straw remains at a Moderate price. Lean Stock of most kinds are lower, from the general scantiness of grain food and fodder of. all sorts. In Smithfield, little or no varia tion of prices, for prime veal, Mutton, or Beef : Pig Pork is somewhat 'dearer. The Wool Markets . are considerably better for fide fleeces of Soutlidown 'and Merino kinds; for long wools there is but little demand. EDINBURGH, JAN. 30. We lately mentioned a number of tar barrels,.&. being thrown ashore upon the coast of Crail. .Last week there was a trunk found, fait lucked, .and' strongly Koped ; after being opened there was found in it from cool. to 3001. in cash, a gold watch, seve ral dozen of fine muslin shirts, a esumber of panta ' loons, vests, &c. &c. It was foubd by two men, who thoughtlessly opened it kw ithout witnesses being .present - to see it opened. Its contents, however, were, no sooner dlscovered than they informed the Chief Magistrate of it, who took charge of it.— This certainly indicates that some vessel, yet un heard of, has-been wrecked on that coast. One of the privates of the Edinburgh Afilitia, who had been employed as a labourer on his Grace the Doke of BUCCI:RUGH'S estate; at Castlesteads, on Saturday last, during his / dinner hour, having gone to procure some brushwood for firing, while in the act of cuffing a rotten branch, fell from the top of a rock, 30 or 40 feet high, into the river below, which beingtompletely frozen over", he was killed instant, ly, his head being immersed into the ice, and lit terally 'split in two. He was first discovered by Lord Home and Sir CHARLES DOUGLAS, who got shim home to his house.—He has left a wife and OE+O children to deplore his loss. CIIEST.L.It, JAN. 3 I. On Friday morning last, ahOut six o'clock, a most alartning tire broke Out in Messrs. Ken weir thy's warehouses in Hop-pole-yard, in this city,' which threatened the destruction of the whole range of buildings, bat owing to the very naive and power ful exertions Of the firemen and persons in working the engines and supplying them with water, it was providentially got under in a much less time than could be 'reasonably. expeaed from the tremendous appearance it at first exhibited.. By pulling down a small stable they contrived to prevent the_ tire corn- Municating to therange of stables at the top cif the yard, adjoining the walls, and ocenpied by Mr., U. of the Hop-pole inn, and though ,they were at one time in , the greatest danger, they did' not receive any injury. The warehouses,: belonging to Messrs. Kenworthy, were full of . goods, a gloat part of which is destroyed, and a AOl larger gnarl. tilk damaged .; : and paper to cousideralal amount; and about 400() newspaper stamps, - in the printing.'- office of Mr. Fletcher, were consumed, and, other damage done 1.1 the confusion that• occurred, but all Ow printing materials were LIVCd. No lives were lost. . , On Sunday night, about ten o'clock, a fire broke out in the bakehouse of Mr. Styles, near. Luton, Kent, which entirely consumed tie same, together with the flour it oontairied. • It has not been ascer— Stifled how the accident occurred. The baker, who slept in the bakehouse, and who had lain down in his clothes, awoke from the pain of burning, and, shocking to relate, found himself completely eni Neldped with the 'flames. Lie 'sprang through the window, and ran to alarm his master, his clothes being all the time in one continued blaze. The fa mily immediately made every every exertion to ex tiqui,h the poor 1, , ,110w's clothes, but they were all nearly reduced to ashes, before they could render hint any assistance his terrors were so great, and • the pain he endured- so miserably acute, that his presence of mind entirely forsook him, and he made no attempt to relieve himself. He expired aliont five o'clock next morning in great agony. Two horses that were in's budding adjoining the bake house, were, with difficulty, saved, after being very much burnt. A dreadful fire.broke ont'at a quarter before five o'clock yesterday morning, at the house of Mr: [lance, army agent, in Pall-Mall.court; Pall-Mall. it was first discovered - by Mrs. li'auca's nurse, who had been into the back room with Mrs. Bausa's intent. On perceiving, the flames, she ran down stairs, crying out " fife! fire !," with the infant in her arms. Mrs. %Luca, who had only lain-in three weeks; got out of bed, and ran down stairs also.— She was, with her four children, taken to the house of Mr. VRANCIS, the upholSterer, in and every aWstante was tendered to thetti. Theflames destroyed the house and its fitruiturc e and vel much damaged the back part of the next lionse; belong ing to Mr. AnAra. Mr. AtiortasTatN's lime, be ing the corner of the court, - was cleared of all the valuable paintings, - which were deposited hi the, Duke of No:trur.R.'s 'Ai St. James's square.
